# Adobe font grabber

Forked from [bennyboer](https://github.com/bennyboer/)'s [Adobe Font Grabber](https://github.com/bennyboer/adobe-font-grabber/)!

Tool to copy all fonts installed via Adobe CC to a folder of your choice.

## What's New?

Yes, I know it's long, so I changed the program name from "adobe-font-grabber" to "afg".


I also hard-coded the data directory (`%appdata%` for Windows, `$HOME/Library/Application Support` for MacOS) to the program so you only need to put one argument which is specifically the save location of the fonts.

## Download

You can download a pre-built binary for 64-bit Windows on the GitHub releases page under "Assets": https://github.com/bennyboer/adobe-font-grabber/releases

If you do not use Windows you will have to built your own binary (See [Building](#building)).

## Usage

Use the tool on your command line as follows:

```sh
./adobe-font-grabber <FOLDER TO SEARCH FOR FONTS IN> <PATH TO THE ENTITLEMENTS XML FILE> <FOLDER TO COPY FONTS TO>
afg "<FOLDER TO COPY FONTS TO>"
```

## Example

I only tested the tool for Windows but it should probably also work for other operating systems. For Mac OS the path the
fonts are located in is something like `<HOME>/Library/Application/Support/Adobe/CoreSync/plugins/livetype/.r/`.

### Windows

```sh
./adobe-font-grabber.exe "C:/Users/<USERNAME>/AppData/Roaming/Adobe/CoreSync/plugins/livetype" "C:/Users/<USERNAME>/AppData/Roaming/Adobe/CoreSync/plugins/livetype/c/entitlements.xml" "C:/Users/<USERNAME>/Downloads/ADOBE_FONTS"
afg "C:/Users/<USERNAME>/Downloads/ADOBE_FONTS"
```
